UPS expands to Myanmar

UPS has commenced air and ocean services in Myanmar, trying to capture an up-and-coming market that, according to the International Monetary Fund, could show 8.5-percent growth during the next fiscal year.
The integrator will offer direct and consolidated air services, along with full containerload and less-than-containerload offerings. This is the first time UPS has offered service to the country.
“UPS works closely with our customers, and they have expressed a need for reliable freight services from Myanmar that will connect them to markets worldwide,” stated Mary Yeo, UPS South Asia District’s vice president of supply chain operations.
